The Tombstone Epitaph Is the most fexibIy edited paper in Arizona. It's 'n- consistencies would bring blush ai shame to the cheek of Frank Pixley, one ofthe mos, forcltle writers n the Unh d States, but also one of the most inc"n- sistent of the present period. The Epl- taph has indulged in the most bitter ce- nunciation and abuse of Governor Zu- lick, descending from legitimate crIticism n of his official actions to the most point d personalities, showing up his personal delinquencies in connection with the Nacosa,i mining operations and otter questions of purely personal character, which no other paper in the territory would publish. Having recently said something favorable to him, the gover- nor rewarded |, by authorizing the pup lication Tn Us columns, an adverliseme nj of reward offered, since when It "bends the supple knee that thrift may follow fawning," and in most pl.eous and plaintive tones bewails and bemoans the fact that certain papers yet dare to crIu- else his actions. and in its fulsome praise and fa,tery of him, stamps as falsehood all that 1t has ever heretofore said con corning him. Since its self-confesslon ot falsehood, -rrcvi-u,fy.r rfe readers of that flexibly edited journal will be at loss hereafter to know what to believe and what to doubt, that appears as original in its columns.

 ment crackers and curned beef. The
 letter was very '1imely" alter the matter
 had been discussed all over the United States by the press, and while there was no attention of taking the Apaches Out of Florida; in fact, t was sufficiently timely to reach the department after the report of the commis ion on the Florida Apa- ches had been disposed Of, as well as the Apaches themselves. The governor has been saving Arizona" ever since he has been here. He saved it by attempting to have an armed force sent into the ter ritory to prevent the helpless settlers from protecting themselves from the Apachcs. He saved 1t by sleeping on the hills of Cochise with h,s "Winchester for bride" he saved it by being an ''old resident" when he filed hls application for governor of Arizona; he saved ii by vetoing bills | in the legislature which he recommended should be passed. and encouraged while | on their passage; he saved it by attempt | ing to destroy the ereoit of Arizona
 abroad both by dispatches and letters, | and thus causing great loss to the ter | ritory in the sale of bonds; he saved 1t by becoming suddenly moral and ystoing q lottery bill with one-A-nd while he ap- proyedI--ga5d stud poker with the other; he saved 1t by stepping to fraud upon | the people to put his henchmen into of flee who couIi not be put there honestly
 and openly; he saved il by attempting to secure from the legislature an aPpropris-
 ton to pay personal expenses incurred from political and demagogic purposes; he has saved 1t by disgraoing the hIgh position he was expected to occupy ull he has become the butt of the snecrs of
 the entire territory; he has saved it by | by a violation of the laws of the United
 States in appointing members of the leg islature to offices emoluments o' which l they were instrumental m increalng and while they were yet members of that leg isla,ure; he saved It by having hts pict- ure and ''great moral veto" published in the California Rural Press along side of
 a homiletic on boiled squash; he saved it
 by attempted political trickery so base
 that his own partisans would not sup
 port him in it; and as hls nature seems
 10 run so strongly to salvation he will
 probably save Arizona the humiliation
 of his occupancy much longer.-Her | ,lI

But while praising our successful efforts to ride the crest of the wave, he says that Prescott among the pines, is not ore whit behind us in hopes and efforts When told that there were still old siurians in Phenix who pre- dicted that the railroad would kill the town, he laughed heartily. and said that Prescott, was a living example of the fai- sity of such a proposition.

The Religious Status Of the world

As to religion, the r,45o. 100000 of individuals on earth are divided m the order of numerical strength, as follows {: Eight hundred and sixty millions are pagans, comprising Goo, ,ooo,ooo Brahma- Buddhists, or Brahmans or Buddbisls; 100, 900 of unclassiied pagans ; 10000, 900 of Parsees, Confucianists, Shintoists. Jalns and other pagan sects; 10000, ,o6o are Christians, composed of ,,s.ooo. 900 of Roman Catholics, 75.- ooo. 900 of the Greek church, and IIo,- 900, 900 Pro,estlnts; ISo, ,ooo,o Mo hammedans; S.ooo,ooo Jews. The s6o, 900, ,ooo of pagans are found chiefly in Asia and Africa, and comprise 99- rooths of the populatioI with scatter ing millions in the Americas and islands of the seas. The 4Io,ooo,ooo Christ iaas constitute the body of Europe and nine-ten,hs of the Americas, with a few millions m Asia and Africa and the islands. The Mohammedans are chiefly in Asia and Africa. The Jews are scat tered in all lands, without a home or country.
 This is, approximately. correct cast of the religious status of the world to- day. It shows two-thirds of the whole to be pagan, or, including the Moham- medans and Jews as an:i-Christian com ponents of the pagan fraction. three quarters of the whole The remaining fraction-a little more than quarter Christian, of which fraction more than one-half is Roman Catholic, one-quaiter (nearly) Greek, little over a quarter Protestant.-Ex.

Another tram robbery by "green hands" has taken place, this time on the Missouri Pacific railroad, at McNeill Station, Texas. AS usual, the "green hands" go, away with several thousand dollars. The announcement was made that the robbery which occurred in this territory nearly month ago was done by green hands. AS no trace has ever been discovered of them, and as no clue has been obtained of the Texas robbers, i, would seem that green hands were eminently successful Tn this line.

The New York Commercial Adver- tiser says an organization is being effected among certain capitalists of that city to trade in silver certificates the same as grain and common certificates are now dealt m. The head center ef the organ iza,ion will be the New Western National bank, of which ex-Secretary of the Treas ury Manning and exTreasurer J ordan are the founders. Manning and his associates planned to make New York the chief center of the bullion trade, and thus transfer the continental market from London to New York. Their plan of operations is to have silver bullion m large quantities deposited with the West ern National bank or elsewhere, issue certificates against the bullion so depos ited, and have these certificates trade in volume very much as grain certificates are in Chicago.
